Two Steel Side Plates Bolted in Splice Joint To Main Member

Connection Data:
Main:
Lumber joist S-P-F No.1/No.2 dry seasoned 38 x 89 mm
Side Plate (x2):
ASTM A446 Grade A Steel 6 x 76 mm

Length of member overlap is 683 mm.

Factored Loads:
Along main member: 20 kN standard duration in tension.

Connector Design:
Fasteners:
Bolt Diameter: 1/2" (12.7 mm)
1 rows of 7 bolts = 7 bolts
Bolt spacing in row: 89 mm

Design Results:
Factored Load: Pf = 20 kN
Connection Capacity: Pr = 20.53 kN
Tension Capacity Net Area Tr = 20.96 kN
Row Tear Out Capacity Rt = 0 kN

Note: Steel design checks NOT included in design.

When the moisture content of the wood is expected to be less than 10%
at time of fabrication, minimum spacings and/or end and edge distances
should be increased and holes should be predrilled to avoid splitting.

Suggested Design Only, Designer Must Ensure that the

Design is Appropriate for Intended Use
